Wilbur sat awake on his bed holding his guitar, he glanced over to the clock and saw that it was 4:27am. 'Great, another sleepless night for me I guess.' he thought to himself as he gently strummed the strings on his guitar. Truth be told, Wilbur had gotten about an hours sleep in the past 4 days, he would always either lay in bed awake or play his guitar. Of course he always said he was okay whenever his family asked, but he was saying that more to himself then to them. His mind was foggy and whenever he stood for too long he would feel light headed, but he chose to ignore this. He let out a long and tired sigh before going back to playing his guitar.

3 Hours Later

Phil was always the first one to wake up in the family (that's if you don't count Wilbur), so when Wil heard a door opening down the hall he knew who it was. He checked the time again and saw it was 7:32am, he decided to put his guitar down and get changed.

After getting dressed into a fluffy yellow sweater and some ripped jeans, Wilbur exited his room and went downstairs. He saw Phil in the kitchen making breakfast. "Mornin' Phil." Wilbur greeted his father figure, "Oh! Morning mate, how come you're up so early?" Phil asked, "Not sure," he lied smoothly, "just kinda woke up and decided to come downstairs." Wil replied rubbing his eyes. He sat down at the table and snuggled into his sweater, the effects of the lack of sleep was catching up to him. He decided to rest his head on the table since resting on his arms seemed very inviting at that moment. The moment his head hit his arms he passed out, Phil noticed Wil asleep and smiled before continuing with breakfast.

20 Minutes Later

As soon as Phil heard quick and loud footsteps coming down the stairs he knew Tommy was awake, he also knew that Wilbur's nap was going to come to an end. "WASSUP BITCHES!" Tommy yelled as he got in the kitchen, Wilbur jolted awake and groaned. "Morning Tommy," Phil said, "did you sleep well?" he questioned. "Yup!" Tommy said, his loud voice was doing nothing good for Wilbur's headache. "Shut up you gremlin child.." Wilbur muttered burying his head into his arms, "What's wrong with this dumbass?" Tommy asked, "Think he's just tired mate." Phil responded, he put a portion of bacon and eggs onto plates and gave one to both Wilbur and Tommy.

Phil noticed Wilbur was acting strange through breakfast, his movements were slow and sluggish. The bags under his eyes were also a big red flag, "Wil, you feeling alright?" Phil's voice was laced with concern. "I'm fine Phil don't worry.." his voice wavered every so slightly at the end but if Phil noticed, he didn't say anything about it. 

10 Minutes Later

After Wilbur finished his food he set the plate down in the sink and made his way to the living room, Philza was upstairs doing something. He passed Tommy on his way but his head suddenly became foggy. He felt extremely light headed and put his hand against the wall for support, he thought he heard Tommy say something but he couldn't tell. 

Tommy noticed Wil seemed to be struggling, "Wil you good big man?" he questioned. He frowned when he got no reply and went to talk again, before he could Wilbur collapsed to the ground. Tommy froze for a second before realising what happened, "Wilbur?!" he semi shouted, "PHIL! WILBUR COLLAPSED!" he yelled up to Phil hoping he heard him. He quickly crouched down beside Wil but was unsure of what to do, he heard quick footsteps coming down the stairs. "Tommy? What's wrong?" Phil's voice sounded slightly panicked, "It's Wilbur, he collapsed!" Tommy yelled back. 

Philza gently picked up Wilbur and went over to the living room, he rested him on the couch and sighed. "What's wrong with him?" Tommy asked, his voice panicked. "If I had to guess, I would say he passed out due to exhaustion." Philza explained, he sounded worried. "So he hasn't been sleeping?" Phil nodded, he sighed.

4 Hours Later

Techno had come downstairs around 2 hours ago, Philza and Tommy were sitting in the living room and Wilbur was still passed out on the couch. Phil had positioned Wil so that his head was on his lap, Techno had put a blanket over Wil before going out to farm potatoes. 

"Why do you think Wilbur hasn't been sleeping?" Tommy asked, "It's probably something to do with stress, either that or he's been trying to keep up with work." Philza said, he was carding his hands through Wil's hair. Wil seemed to relax into the touch.

1 Hour Later

Tommy ended up falling asleep on the couch, Techno also decided to take a rest on the couch. Philza smiled at the sight of his peaceful sons, at that moment Wilbur decided to stir. 

"Hmm..." Wilbur shifted before opening his eyes, "Welcome back mate." Phil said softly. "Mmm, what happened..?" Wil's voice was still laced with sleep, "You decided to make friends with the floor Wil, scared the shit out of me and Tommy." Phil explained, "Oh... sorry..." Wil muttered. "How you feeling?" Phil asked, "'m tired.." was all Wilbur said. "Go back to sleep then Wil, I'm not going anywhere." Phil replied. 

After hearing that Wilbur passed out again.
